In this chapter, we had a overview about log monitoring challenges, best practices, and certain tools that will help us on the way. Since we have specifically discussed the advantages of auditd in Linux in Chapter 4, Server Hardening, to determine the system events, this chapter was more focused on the process and tools part.
